System crash now Motion becomes unresponsive on startup

Had a system crash with the dark screen forcing me to hold the power button to shut it down. Now I have reopened Motion and as soon as its started up and I go to the toolbar (File Edit etc....) the program hangs. I have tried getting round this by just double clicking on a saved project to open it and instead it hangs on the Motion startup screen.
Any ideas?

Just left a project opening and unresponsive without realising and then saw it open in the background behind safari a full 15 minutes after I clicked open - Its a very small project file with 3 text boxes and gradient background and an image so it's not due to it being a complicated sequence.

I just installed latest updates and now itunes becomes unresponsive after 10-15 minutes

The latest OSX update (Security Update 2013-003) perhaps is breaking itunes. It becomes unresponsive after 10-15 minutes and I have to force quit it each time.

with that one, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:
Removing iTunes and QuickTime for Windows
now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time?

System crash - now external drive problem

Hi,
I recenlty bought a Maxtor OnetouchIII firewire external drive because my disk was getting full. I transfered a lot of files to it and freed about 70gb of space. Shortly afterward I started to get a system crash on start-up - with the grey box saying I need to re-start. This would not go away so I ran a the system check cd (OK) then re-booted from a back-up drive I keep. This seemed to fix the problem and the system worked again when I switched back to it. Then the problem happened again and rebooting from the back-up did not work.
I had to reinstall 10.3 then update again to 10.3.9, which I had before. Everything seems fine now apart from one annoying problem - I cannot drag files from the Maxtor drive onto Apps, which I could do before. They will only open from within apps.
Does anyone know how to solve this trivial but very annoying problem?? Also - is it possible the drive caused my crash, or is it a coincidence?
Thanks for any help.
Theo

I figured it out.

System completely freezes and becomes unresponsive

Hi,
We have a single processor, 1 GB RAM Redhat system (desktop). Normally with the database(oracle 10.1g) and client connections running, the memory utilization of this server is around 90-99% . However every few days the box completely freezes and becomes unresponsive (users cannot login, client connections fail). We have to hardboot the box and restart the database. When in stuck state, the log files are not updated, except that sendmail logs heavy load average. ( Messages like "Load Avg 12: 1 Times(s) Load Avg 13: 1 Times(s) Load Avg 14: 1 Times" and so on) and the free memory falls to 8 mb or less but with above 2 gb swap space available.
My question is if there is no free memory, system should thrash (excessive swapping) and become slow, but instead our box completely freezes, though the interactive response ( for any connection which is still active) and ping response is ok, they aren't slow.
Is there any kernel level parameter that can be tuned so the server won't freeze, (tries to move the memory pages to swap space or any other way). When the server is stuck (freezes ) any ssh connections still active will stay on, but new connections fail. One time, using that session, I tried to free up memory by killing processes like X Server etc, but still the server didn't unfreeze.
Server info:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 4)
Kernel (uname -r) 2.4.21-27.EL
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz (Single processor)
1 GB RAM
Oracle db version - 10.1.0.3.0
Lastly, I don't think this is any hw problem, because we see similiar problem on multiple system with similiar configs.
Please guide how to resolve the problem. Thanks.

3G Ipod caused System Crash - now my MS Office 2008 doesn't work properly

I, in retrospect foolishly, plugged in a 3G iPod that I don't own. It beeped about 4-5 time and then the system crashed (you know that one that brings up that overlay and you must restart the computer?). I had been running Entourage, Word, Excel, iTunes and Firefox.
I then went to start up my work again and the MS Office programmes kept crashing. Apparently the MS Office database was damaged. I tried to repair it according to instruction but it didn't work.
I did a permissions check and repair. I also checked for damaged files. This indicated that Adobe CS3 Device Central was damaged, System Sync (MS), My Day and Google Updater (coincidental?) were all damaged.
I have completely removed all Adobe and MS Office files (hunting them down with spotlight), un-installing where possible with MS Office and Adobe software and Appzapper.
I removed all the other files that were damaged then re-installed the software (MS Office without Entourage and Adobe PS and Illustrator).
I rechecked for damaged files and still Device Central was damaged and MS Office is being a pain in the butt. Word takes forever to open, save and close. Excel is as bad and copying cells stalls the programme.
My impression is that there is something still in the system that is messing up MS Office and Adobe. Could it all have originated from the system crash and the crappy iPod?
Can anyone tell me what I can do, files to delete... ANYTHING! I have re-installed Office several times with no improvement.
Thanks to you bright sparks in advance.

System crash, now aperture won't run

I just bought aperture yesterday. While testing tethered shooting today, it crashed the entire system. The entire screen darkened and I got a message telling me to hold down the power key for a restart.
After reboot, now aperture starts up, displays the interface, then the spinning beach ball comes up and that's all she wrote. No indication of what's wrong.
Could the crash have corrupted the database? Is there a list of files to remove for complete and total removal of aperture so I can reinstall?
Cliff

That sounds like a "Kernel Panic".
That should not have happened in the first place.
I'd go through all the motions: Software Update, repair permissions etc to make sure that the system itself is stable.
Do you have any 3rd party/generic RAM?
The easiest way to remove the Application is AppZapper, but you can do it manually.
It's easier for you to spotlight Aperture than to list all the places Aperture puts files. Just be sure your spotlight preferences are set to search everywhere.

Itunes crashed, now programs that run on startup crash

hi,
I just installed itunes for my new ipod mini, and while going through my library (my music) i received an error message that advised that there may be a problem with my hardware.
I managed to close itunes, and noticed that there were only 13 songs on my ipod mini, not 800. When I went to download more songs, I recieved the generic "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" message.
I rebooted my computer, and noticed that I got the same message for three other programs that load upon my computer startup. My windows messenger is also no longer working on my computer, but my internet is still ok.
I have Norton '05 and windows firewall, and have disabled both, to no avail. I have also uninstalled my ipod, and itunes/quicktime and still get the message. booting to last known good configuration doesn't help either.
This morning, my computer was fine, now everything is crashing upon startup, and I have no more messenger! Can somebody please help me!!!
w.

hi b,
Thanks for the reply. I think I figured out what happened. Somehow, when I installed the itunes/quicktime software or ipod hardware my computer managed to talk itself into thinking that the year was 9999!
I'm not sure if anybody else has come across this, or what changed the date, but my itunes seems to work now, as well as my MSN Messenger. I'm using the computer right now, and can't reboot, but I'm sure that when I do, it will be fine again.
I guess I have to laugh, after spending all night searching the registry and disabling software/hardware to test for conflicts that it was the date on my computer!
Thanks for the input, and your time b. noir!

Installed trial, inst Dreamweaver, system crash, now can't load program

I'm trying to test drive the Creative Cloud service, and I was able to download and install the Application manager and Dreamweaver CS6. After playing with it last night, I went to bed. Woke up to find my PC crashed to blue screen. Rebooted, ended up needing to do a restore, and now when I open the Application Manager it shows DW installed, but it is NOT on my computer at all. Can't start it, can't search for it, and I can't uninstall or re-install it via the manager. I would very much like to keep playing with the program for the full 30 days before I decide to drop this kind of money!
Help, pretty please?

It is likely that the option was removed to uninstall the software when System restore was run. I would recommend running the CS Clean Tool to remove your current installations. You can find directions on how to obtain and use the tool at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

IPhone 5 Crashed now phone + screen unresponsive

Earlier an app froze then the phone crashed since then the phone is still on but the screen is completely black and does not do anything, the home button only works to activate siri, the power button was already broken so I cannot reset the phone or even turn it off. The phone doesn't do anything when plugged into the socket but when it is put in the computer it will attempt to sync with i tunes but then freezes the computer on step 4 determining apps to synch and then I tunes completely crashes. So I have no way of restoring the phone either through the phone or itunes. The phone has been playing up ever since the 7.1 update and now seems beyond repair. I don't know if anyone else has encountered such problems or could offer any advice with this problem. Thanks.

System crash, now a disk is missing. how to recover?

was just transferring files from one disk to another while opening a final cut project from a third disk. during the process a gray curtain closed from top to bottom of my screen witha message that somethiing serious had happened and that i needed to restart my system by holding the power button in.
i did the hard shutdown. i then restarted. everything is normal except that the disk with the final cut material on it did not mount, or so it seems.
i opened disk utility and the disk does appear there. it seems to have no partition info, though. the volume name is missing. i looked to mount it, just to see what the options might be, but the mount button is gray. i tried the eject button and, after a short wait, got the message that it could not be ejected and to make sure nothing was using it or something like that.
at this point i figured it would be prudent to stop and look into what recovery options there might be. so...
anybody got any tips as to this sort of data recovery/disk repair on a mac?
thanks,
BabaG

Thanks for any help

As has already been pointed out, you've got a lot of junk installed. The biggest problem is likely to be the Intego software, which is far too heavy-handed and is known to devour system resources and cause instability. You definitely need to remove it. Clinging to it simply because you pay for it is simply not logical if it is causing you problems. For less intrusive means of protecting yourself against malware, see my Mac Malware Guide.
You also need to clean out your login items list, which is extensive, and should uninstall any apps you're not using. (I see you have Turbo Tax 2011, for example... since it is now the 2013 tax season, you can probably uninstall the 2011 version at this point.) When uninstalling an app, be sure to use the uninstaller provided by the developer of that app. Do not simply drag it to the trash (unless it was purchased from the App Store), and do not use any general-purpose uninstallers like AppZapper or AppCleaner.
I'd also point out one other thing:

Note the problems that ShareKitHelper is causing. This is a part of the system, but I don't really know what it's for or why it is misbehaving. Something is causing it to hammer your processor and devour RAM, though. This may be an indication of deeper problems with your system, or may clear up after you pare down your overloaded system a bit.

OSX now crashes every hour. OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly. No obvious reason or trigger

OSX now crashes every hour. For no obvious reason or trigger, suddenly OSX apps like Dock, desktops, launchpad, finder, toolbar, etc become unresponsive, although sometimes non OSX apps (like Chrome, TextMate, etc) remain functioning briefly, before the whole thing hangs and needs a hard reboot.
It is not apparent what I do to provoke the crash -- it happens while I am in seemingly any application, sometimes just reading a page and not taking any actions.
This started happening very suddenly two days ago. It might have happened around the time I updated ITunes but I'm not sure of this at all. And I never use ITunes or have it open.
Don't know how to diagnose the problem since nothing is accessible whence it freezes up on me. I tried software update, but problem continued after. Would appreciate troubleshooting advice. Thanks!

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

When loading websites with a lot of thumbnails that are linked for example to imageshack Firefox 6 will just freeze and become unresponsive. If i press the reset page buttom sometimes they will load or sometimes firefox will crash, why is this?

If a website has a lot of thumbnails or animated gifs for example firefox will become unresponsive and sometimes either lag and use a lot of system resources i have seen it as high as 1.2GB or it will just lock up and crash.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
In Firefox 4 and later [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

3D TV 42TL515U Remote becomes unresponsive and TV crashes while watching Netflix

Back in March I ordered a brand-new in-the-box 3D TV 42TL515U TV. The TV has been running great except starting last weekend (Oct. 7th)
I noticed the remote become completely unresponsive to the TV except if I held in the power button.
The remote would work fine when the TV was turned off and turned back on for about 10 minutes and then become unresponsive.
Changing the batteries in the remote had zero effect to correct this issue.
While I was trying to watch Netflix, the TV would crash and shut off and turn back on every 12 minutes (I timed it).
I get this issue when the TV is either hard-wired or wirelessly connected to my network.
I have the lasted TV patch/software version 2.2.2 Oct 26 2011 - 11:34
What can I do to get my TV functiong properly again?

I don't understand why we have to call "customer support" when this isn't an individual issue, its a universal one that needs to be addressed with a firmware update.
This is just awful on Toshiba's part that they can't even push out fixes for issues like this. It's not like we're asking for new content or updated codecs' to play more file types... THIS IS ABOUT COMMON FUNCTIONALITY.
And what's more convenient, Toshiba offers no online chat or even a support email. Awesome job!

My home PC crashed taking over 100 songs with it, my work laptop had everything but those 100 songs, that system is now at home...how do i re-load all those songs that i have already paid for, is there a way to get them back?

My home computer system and work laptop shared an iTunes account, the home system crashed and took 125 or so songs with it that weren't on the work machine...work machine is now my home system but how do I retrieve those 125 songs? Calvin

I agree with whereitis above, I hate it when options are removed (ex: the Bookmarks side panel (Ctrl-B) button missing) etc.. Firefox's major BOLD one-liner is: CUSTIMAZATION. Now to regain this CUSTIMAZATION freedom, Firefox suggest to solve this by installing the ADDON "Classic Theme Restorer". I don't want to install any ADDON to customize Firefox! I went with Firefox because it was CUSTOMIZABLE, and that is the only reason why I went with this web browser! Now, Firefox is asking me to add an ADDON to CUSTOMIZE it. What is this?!
